CURIOUS DECISION AGAINST BOARD OF RQUALIZA-
TON.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Nov. GA special from st.
Joseph, Mo-, says that the valuation Of the Tootle
estate, according to the assessor was $4,000.
The county board OF equalization raised this to
$9OO,O0O, and the estate brought suit. Judge
GruDbS decided that the action OF the board was
nun, on the ground that the members of the board
were never ''sworn" to do their duty, and that,
therefore, taxes can only be levied ON $4,000.
AS this board has raised the valuation on a large
araouhl ol properly IN Buchanan County, the IN
crease in many instances being from 1000 to
1000 per cent over the assessed value this dect.
sion may cost the county an enormous sum- The
loss In the TO0tle estate case alone is $4,000
